3049,USB still no go from non-root account,yk,,"I just downloaded and installed VirtualBox 2.1.0, RHEL5. Same issue as with earlier versions: USB devices in a non-root account show up but greyed-out and non-activatable. The device in question is seen and mounted by the Linux side, and when the device is umounted by Linux (manually), it still is not activatable from a non-root account. I generally do not run any VM (particularly one running within it an MS OS) as root -- too dangerous. Note that VMware workstation does NOT have this problem -- VMware workstation detects that the device is Linux-side mounted and then asks if one wants to de-attach the device from Linux-side and re-attach to the VM side, which VMware then does upon confirmation.
Please reply if possible.",defect,closed,major,other,VirtualBox 2.1.0,duplicate,USB,,Windows,Linux
